Charlie drops anchor in Charlotteville, Tobago—one of the Caribbean’s most biodiverse corners. But beneath the surface of this tropical paradise lies a much darker truth. In this episode of Voyage to the Wild, we dive into the hidden world of shark fishing and wildlife crime. Joining us virtually is Andrea Crosta, founder and CEO of Earth League International—an organisation known as the “CIA of wildlife trafficking.” With decades of experience investigating environmental crime, Andrea sheds light on how shark fins from small islands like Tobago can end up in global criminal supply chains.
